Torc

Work is changing. We’re making it better. Remote and hybrid models are the future. The increased flexibility creates tremendous benefits for freelance developers and companies alike, but the path forward isn’t always clear. We’re building Torc because we believe work can be better: more productive, more free, and more secure. For everyone. Torc is a talent marketplace bringing the most productive freelance developers to the enterprise through an AI, security, and culture-first platform. Why AI? Using AI and automation to match developers with company needs is just the start. Torc is pioneering the use of data to understand and improve productivity. Customers want insights to manage better; top developers want feedback to grow and be recognized. But great matches start before the match. Torc pre-vets every developer through technical assessments, communication screenings, and real-world coding challenges. AI then leverages performance data to refine fit and ensure only elite talent reaches our clients. Why security? Torc is built for enterprise. Our team has been doing this for two decades, not two years. We understand the needs of procurement, HR, legal, and security—and use simplicity, automation, and tech to eliminate barriers to using freelance developers. Why culture? The best developers are leaving traditional jobs for flexibility, personalization, and control over their careers. Our hands-on, community-driven approach supports them in building sustainable freelance careers—not just landing the next gig. Torc is a community of developers, not just a roster. Torc is led by pioneers in distributed talent models, including leaders from Topcoder, Deloitte, Cognizant, Catalant, Atomic Ventures, and Harvard.
